Patent number: 12267541Abstract: Systems and methods for video processing generates 3D streaming data via an API may be provided. A 3D streaming session may be delivered at a client device with low latency and high throughput capacity. Upon verification of the client device, a server may be selected to support an encapsulated 3D streaming engine to initiate the session. A library file may be injected into an executable file of the encapsulated 3D streaming engine to generate a digital representation of an interactive 3D environment. The interactive 3D environment may be rendered, encoded, and streamed to the client device via a GPU. The 3D streaming session may be adjusted via the client device, and sustained until terminated at the client device. A number of virtual compute instances of encapsulated 3D streaming engines provided by the server may be dynamically adjusted based on metrics and machine learning predictions of connected client devices.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2023Date of Patent: April 1, 2025Assignee: MONKEYWAY GmbHInventors: Christian Häring, Stefan Koch, Andreas Adam

Publication number: 20250012121Abstract: A motor arrangement with a door which can be swung between a closed and open position, including a door locking arrangement having an electrically actuated door latch configured to be moved between a locked and unlocked position, and a push-open arrangement for pushing open the door body from its closed position. The push-open arrangement includes a plunger, an actuator driving the plunger, and a controller configured to unlock the door locking arrangement when an electronic opening request is received and then electrically supply the actuator in a normal mode, such that the swing door is pushed from its closed to open position. The controller is configured to switch to a crash mode and to supply the actuator with an electrical power which is increased by at least 50% compared to the normal power when an opening request is received.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2024Publication date: January 9, 2025Inventors: Harald GERBER, Stefan ADAMS, Stefan PART, Patrick WIEDMAIER

Patent number: 11599775Abstract: Graphical elements in a user interface (UI) may be detected in robotic process automation (RPA) using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Such processes may be particularly well-suited for detecting graphical elements that are too small to be detected using conventional techniques. The accuracy of detecting graphical elements (e.g., control objects) may be enhanced by providing neural network-based processing that is robust to changes in various UI factors, such as different resolutions, different operating system (OS) scaling factors, different dots-per-inch (DPI) settings, and changes due to UI customization of applications and websites, for example.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2021Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: UiPath, Inc.Inventors: Mircea Neagovici, Stefan Adam, Virgil Tudor, Dragos Bobolea

Patent number: 11328524Abstract: Described systems and methods allow the automatic extraction of structured information from images of structured text documents such as invoices and receipts. Some embodiments employ optical character recognition (OCR) technology to extract individual text tokens (e.g., words) and token bounding boxes from a document image. A feature vector of each text token comprises a first part determined according to a character content of the text token, and a second part determined according to an image content of the token's bounding box. A neural network classifier produces a label indicative of a type of information (e.g. “billing address”, “due date”, etc.) carried by each text token. In some embodiments, documents are linearized by ordering text tokens in a sequence according to a reading order of a natural language (e.g., English, Arabic) in which the respective document is formulated. Token feature vectors are fed to the classifier in the order indicated by the token sequence.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2019Date of Patent: May 10, 2022Assignee: UiPath Inc.Inventors: Horia Cristescu, Stefan A.

Patent number: 8560358Abstract: Generation of an engineering change case is initiated by associating an identified problem for a product with an engineering change case template. The engineering change case can include a plurality of structured folders that can be populated with content characterizing the identified problem as well as proposed solutions to the identified problem with each folder being assignable to one or more users and having associated deliverables for such users. The various users populate the folders with content associated with the deliverables with at least a portion of the deliverables being delegable and requiring completion in a sequential order. Thereafter, generation of the engineering case can be finalized when an indication is received that all deliverables requiring approval have been completed. Otherwise, the engineering change case can be canceled. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2008Date of Patent: October 15, 2013Assignee: SAP AGInventors: Andre Doerfler, Arno Mielke, Klaus Herter, Ulrich Spinola, Christian Fuhlbruegge, Archim Heimann, Werner Sottong, Steffen Springborn, Alexander Stefan Adam, Thomas Kretz, Karlheinz Agsteiner, Volker Faisst, Otfried von Geisau, Dieter Krisch, Dorothea Martin, Silke Massmann, Katharina Sorge
